Publisher's summary

The text called the “Seven-Line Prayer” is said to contain the most sacred and important teachings of the Nyingma school and is recited daily by many Tibetan Buddhists. White Lotus unlocks the secret of the prayer and explains its meaning on many levels.

The author, Jamgön Mipham, was a celebrated nineteenth-century scholar who was known for his prolific, lucid, and original writings on many subjects, including science, medicine, and philosophy—in addition to Tibetan Buddhist practice and theory.

Glad to Understand the Prayer

While the recording itself could be perfected The White Lotus still fully and efficiently expands understanding of what in English seems like a simple invocation. A single listening brought me to get a proper shrine dedicated to Padma and to incant the Seven lines melodiously. I found a beautiful recording of the mantra on Spotify. It loops over and over in the process. It altogether is good.

Teaching Supreme; Recording 2nd Rate

This teaching is supreme and is ideal to be read, studied, and applied as much as possible. The recording sounds like it was done on a cheap and old home recording unit before good technology was available. It also sounds like he did it in the his bathroom because the “I’m down in a well” sound quality is poor and the reading being negligible. Certain words were unintelligible at times and that is a real disappointment. Sadly, the recording is not in keeping with the quality of the dharma that it is communicating. It should be re-done in order to be worthy. I listen to it anyway because it is better than nothing. I bought the kindle version so I could see everything that was supposed to have been recorded to insure proper understanding and practice.

Great quality and content!

Thank you so much for putting this work on Audible. I find myself able to hear the scriptures while driving and going about much easier than sitting down to read, thanks again.

Got to get this one in Print

This is not a good choice for audio. This book requires the careful consideration that only a careful reading of the print version can provide.
